Hey Rick -

Don't let the one casino ruin your view of all of them. Sands connects to Claridge/Ballys/Caesars (all Park Place) and then a 20 foot walk to Trump Plaza. So you'd never have to leave the inside. Try one of the others.

Atlantic City is not doing very poorly. They continue to set records for revenue. But it is a matter of not having to deal with the concept of customer because "resistance is futile". When New Yorkers have a third (Catskills) and possibly even a fourth or fifth with the Poconos and Rhode Island looking at adding casinos, and with the Borgata opening... well I hope....
